Yes. Look around the outside roofline of your house along the soffets espesially the corners. You will see the hole where they come in. Then hang a 5 gallon bucket one third full of water under hole. When a bat leaves his hole for evening feeding they fall slightly before they get there wings open. If the bucket is right there they will fall in the water. next morning go up and dump the drowned bats out, fill with water again and hang back up. continue doing this everyday untill you find no bats in bucket in morning. then as final cure go up and patch hole at dusk when they would be out feeding in case there are any that surpassed the water bucket. I did this in house we first lived in. Found about 40 bats in water first morning 30 the next maybe 5 the next and then 2 and then there were none for about 3 days at witch time I plugged the hole. When someone first told me that I thought how the hell am I going to find the hole but take your time and look closely espessially in corners and you will find it. We did not have a bat in the house for the next 17 years so it really does work.
